Essenatial is Sensational !!!!!!!.......2006-03-11

The First time I heard this Cd when our Local Library had a copy and what an Improvement it was over the Double Cd of The Legend Of Paul Revere not only did they pick the best for this one Cd but the Mastering of this sounds so much better !!!! I was also very suprised of 2 tracks that were put on here the Alternate version of Hungry with the explicit lyrics and the Extended Version of The Great Airplane Strike all the hits and album favorites are on here the only problem is that they left off 2 of my favorite songs of this era like There She Goes off of Midnight Ride and Undecided Man ( which sounds like a Poor Mans Version of Eleanor Rigby) off of Spirit of 67 but other than that a Cd you gotta have in your Selection now Im waiting for a Part 2 of this Cd of the later hits!!!

Must Have.......2002-03-12

This CD is a must have for the essential Paul Revere fan. Many Recordings are not found on the Columbia sets. It proves why this band was one of the top dance bands in the nation of the sixties.

Nothing like it.......2002-01-09

Yes, I grew up in the 60's and loved the garage rock sound from a number of bands. I started listening to Paul Revere & the Raiders after hearing "Just Like Me" sometime back in 1965. This collection is great because 1) It contains all the hits up until "Him Or Me" 2) Strong album tracks like "Louise" and "I'm Not Your Stepping Stone" are included 3) You get the 5 minute plus version of "Great Airplane Strike" 4) You get the uncensored version of "Hungry" 5) Two songs sung by Fang are included. Throw in a few songs previously not on any PR&R album, and there you have it - you have the Essential Ride. Now, we need a follow-up, an Essential Ride II with all the other hits, starting with "I Had a Dream" along with some more album tracks. By the way, the version of "Louie, Go Home" included here is the one that appears on the "Midnight Ride" album. Even if you have the 2 CD Anthology, you may find a place in your collection for The Essential Ride as well.

THE ESSENTIAL RIDE 63-67.......2000-07-24

What a brilliant american group very listenable and very poppy,the songs featured are altenative versions or unreleased all their major hits are on here well the ones that made the hot 100 in america at the time. England never welcomed them in the charts and they never sold here really either such a shame that a lot of people missed out on their stuff at the time the compilation comes with a very very informative book lots of wonderful pictures and passing words from the group members themselves you would be a fool not to buy this wonderful collection.
